They really do serve good tasting biryani. But that’s about all that I like here :/​wish their other items was as good as the biryani. Oh well thumbs up for nailing the biryani

Not sure if the positive reviews posted are genuine. My experience was bad. Biryani sucked big time.

Briyani has good taste with Indian spices. I’m a regular customer, and I like both Chicken and Mutton Biryanis. People are very nice as well. Pre-​order over phone to avoid serving delay!!!

Looking at all the good reviews about this place, we finally decided to order food from here. But it wasn’t upto our expectations. Coming from Hyderabad, where biryani is almost like the staple food, i would say this biryani is no where close to authentic Hyderabadi biryani. We also ordered chicken 65 which had a very pleasing aroma but had too much of sauce which made it taste too sweet. Overall, i wouldn’t say its the best place for indian food in the city.
Delivery was quick. The quantity was also fine. One biryani should be enough for two people.

One of the best place for hyderabadi biryani.
Very friendly staff.
I recommend this place to everyone.

Hmm so was at the mall and thought I’d try to find a new Indian restaurant to try out. This place popped and didn’t know what to expect…
So put the address in and followed the gps
Place looked to be off the beaten bath.
Lol the place is definitely not easy on the eyes. It’s not a place I’d dine in.
So ordered a Biryani, chicken Tikka Masala, and naan.
The Biryani was good, I’m not a fan of boned chicken biryani, but this was good.
The chicken Tikka Masala looked so water down, bur still decided to give it a short, there was barely any chicken in it, too much cream, and very oily.
The Naan was straight up from a freezer and heated up on the stove.
I’d probably never come back here even though the biryani was good, the chicken Tikka Masala showed me enough for me to make up my mind.

This spot is in a VERY odd location. Parking situation isn’t great. The interior design has much to be desired. But the briyani is great. The naan was on point as well. The owner is really nice and accommodating. I’m happy that this establishment is still going strong. Would definitely come back.

Had the lamb biryani and chicken 65 off the charts. Hole in wall kind of place but that’s where the good food is. Biryani is the South Indian kind very spicy and flavorful. I like this place because everything is authentic. A lot of places dumb it down so the general public can eat it. Not this place. Don’t expect customer service or anything fancy. But the guy is nice and friendly took my order over the phone. Takeout kind of place. This place is like a trip to India for my mouth. Authentic is the keyword here.

The food is really yummyy. It’s a small place so wouldn’t prefer dining in there. Good for carry out orders. The lady who cooks and serves too was friendly but needs to be a bit concerned about the hygiene…

The best place for biryani. I usually never like to have veg biryani but this restaurant is just full of taste when it comes to vegetable biryani.
And the other thing is best customer value and totally value for money. Not only the food but I am also very happy with there service and delivery. It was my life savior during my school days at FDU.
You guys are doing a great job. Thanks so much
I might order one now :) already drooling :)

Made for delivery place. Have ordered Biriyani a number of times. Hands down, the best Chicken Biriyani in the Hackensack area.
Tried Chicken 65 once and was okay.
Also ordered tried Butter Chicken gravy and it was actually good (not great though). They don’t have a tandoor I guess, as the naan was basically a pita bread from a store. And they told us that upfront, which is very much appreciable.
Haven’t been to the place, so don’t know how it looks, but for a desi, it’s the go Biriyani place in Hackensack.

I order chicken biryani and mutton biryani. Both are super delicious, me and my husband love it. I could give 5 star, but because I compared it with the other restaurant that I order by delivery too, I have to give 4 star for desi bites. They both have the same price, but the other gave so many extra (hummus, a lot of salad, and so many meats).

Best chicken biriyani in USA. I have only had such awsome biriyani in India. This is authentic biriyani right from the type of rice to the tender cooked chicken!
The samosas are not bad either!

I went to this restaurant to place a Togo order. The lady «Aunty» who manages this place was very friendly. She also offered me Achari Chicken to taste since I was confused what to order in the chicken entrée.
I ordered
chicken biryani — the best biryani
Chicken tikka masala — best
Samosa — best
In short the whole order I placed was the best! The biryani is the best we have had in US. It has perfectly cooked rice and chicken and all the needed flavors.
The menu is limited which limits choice but that’s fine because whatever they make, they make it with so much dedication and love. There are tables as well if you want to sit and eat.
I will recommend this place to everyone! If you want to have a pick up, you can call them before hand to avoid the wait.

Small hole in the wall place. Kind of away from everything. Worth going there though.
Limited menu. Better to call ahead, since they make food fresh it can be a wait.
